Why did you pursue an MBA after the military?
“After 10 great years in the Marine Corps, my wife and I were ready for a change. When faced with the daunting prospect of transitioning out of the military, I realized that pursuing a full-time MBA was the best avenue to manage this culture shift as well as close the knowledge gap I no doubt had with my civilian peers.”
Why did you choose the Texas McCombs MBA program?
“McCombs has the same atmosphere as all of my favorite units that I served with in the Marine Corps. When you walk in the building, there is just a buzz of excitement because everyone enjoys being here. The first thing I noticed when I visited as a prospective student was the overwhelming mutual respect that existed between the staff, the faculty, and the students. I knew in the first 10 seconds of walking in the door that this was the place for me.”
